I gasped as I came out of the dream that hung tight to my mind…no, not a dream…a memory. Timehop, that's what I had decided to call myself, I reassured myself sternly, not TES5201. I drifted aimlessly in and out of what seemed to be an endless slumber, a prisoner to my own thoughts. Disgust would have been evident on my face, but now I couldn't even show emotion to the people that had taken my body away. The people that only knew me as TES5201.I was nothing, Just the girl that couldn't remember, and probably never would. Left in the darkness that was my own mind.
Unfortunately, every now and then voices would enter the little world I meandered in, somehow keeping my mind sane, yet pushing me farther back into the void. By reminding me I wasn't the same anymore. I was a computer. No limbs to move like I once remembered doing, before hell had seemingly chosen me as its next game.
At first I listened intently to what the researchers had done or where planning on doing. Talk of some type of stolen holo-shape technology would drift my way. Even talk about a newly discovered sentient being was a main subject among the researchers. All of this would have been of interest to me before, but being the test subject wasn't on my life's bucket list. Though it wasn't like I could just walk out of the building, let alone the room that confined me; without a pair of two feet. Discovering what I had become was no fun at all either. Being that the researchers had turned me into some type of sentient computer chip, lacking the majority of the six senses. It seemed liked weeks, months, and maybe even years had passed. Nothing changed.
It wasn't until the world seemed to collapse around me that I could finally see. Thinking nothing of it at first, I thought it to be one of the dreams of the outside world that I had come to often have. So I could remember and never forget again, but then it didn't go away. The surroundings around me only became clearer and clearer. I was looking out one of the computer cameras that had been left on. The room that lay out before me was different than what I remembered. First, it was much larger in size and had thick wires splayed out everywhere on the hard rocky floor. This new room resembled a cavern of some sort, but with updated tech in every nick and cranny.
The most foreign of technology sat under the sway of dim lights, the dead center of the room. I inhaled with wonder as I looked at the giant robot that sat before me. Unlike anything I've seen so far. Dark blue paint glinted in the faint lighting, worn and chipped on the robots armor. It held a noticeable woman's physique in all the metal and parts strew about .An alien like presence lingered around it. Newly discovered sentient being, that's what the researchers had talked about, was this thing it? I saddened at the fact that it had ended up with a similar fate to mine, only there were now no signs of life evident. I couldn't help the feeling of resentment that it was dead and I wasn't.
Maybe my wish would come sooner than I thought or…at least that's what I hoped.
